Chapter 10 (2/2)

At that moment, I was surprised to see him plunge straight into the ominous cloud. Even the three sorcerers standing beside me gasped with astonishment as their eyes followed his blurred silhouette.

Fruys stayed the edge of the clouds for a while, and he was too high up for me to see what he was doing even when I craned my neck.

All I could tell was that the clouds actually started to speedily drift back towards Lord Cyth’s territory, as if they were commanded to do so. But the fast momentum of the clouds was soon countered and they slowed down, like they suddenly met resistance. However, ultimately they continued to move away from my army and into the direction of our opponents despite of it.

It was then that I noticed a white figure waving her hands and casting spells on top of a tower in Lord Cyth’s territory. Chances were, it was the Snow Witch.

She was losing this contest of magical strength.

In order to prevent the blizzard from landing on her own people, she cut off the forbidden spell before it was completed and was. .h.i.t by a powerful backlash as a result. I watched her vomit out a mouthful of blood due to her heavy injuries.

The voice of the Snow Witch reverberated through the sky: “Who the h.e.l.l are you? Even if you are an ice-type dragon, how do you have the power to suppress my ability to control ice and snow?”

She directed this to Fruys, but he did not answer.

The following battle was completely one-sided. No one expected that the Snow Witch wouldn’t be able to cast any of her magic.

To put it simply, all of the ice and snow elemental power in the area was now fully under Fruys’s control and would not heed the commands of the Snow Witch. It was as if she was a mere commander of ice and snow who encountered the G.o.d that ruled that domain.

The three sorcerers were completely stupefied by this scene.

I had stayed behind at the very back the entire time, and as the battle neared its end, I felt a gaze upon me. The Snow Witch stared straight at me, sending chills through my heart.

She spoke once more. “I wasn’t able to help my love protect his country, but I won’t let you taste the sweet joy of victory either.”

Fruys seemed to realize something as he had abruptly changed his course. From the very front lines, he flew frantically towards me as fast as he could.

In that moment, I had a bad feeling about what the Snow Witch was about to do.

I still remembered the time when I told Fruys how scary a demiG.o.d’s curse could be. Fruys had disdainfully sneered. “DemiG.o.ds aren’t true witches, so they can’t curse people whenever they want. While it’s true that their curses are powerful, they can only use it once in their life. That is, when they die. In either case, dragons are immune to a majority of curses so if she really does casts one, you’ll have me there to block it for you.”

The Snow Witch intended to die.

I witnessed Fruys wildly hurtling towards me, and as everyone at the scene watched, he nimbly grabbed and clutched me tightly into his chest, and blocked the brunt of the curse.

At that point, my vision went black and I lost consciousness.

..·:*¨¨*.·:*¨♡¨*:·. 43 .·:*¨♡¨*:·.*¨¨*:·…

When I awoke, I knew I didn’t die.

The Snow Witch had cursed me to suffer an unbearably agonizing and painful death but because of Fruys, I was able to stand here right now perfectly fine without the slightest amount of pain.

However, he was not able to completely block the curse.

I became blind.
